Id take one or the other right now.

If you stick with wingbacks then IMO you’re writing off Wright and Sakamoto, you’re also probably forced to play Eccles every game. And you lack an obvious central CB candidate if you want to rest/drop Fadz. We’ve never successfully played this system without a box to box midfielder.

That midfield gets eaten alive

We don’t know how to play anything right now. If £10m of defensive signings can’t play a back four I’ve got serious questions. I think the fact is Fadz can’t play a back four and we will need to just bite the bullet and build a new central defensive unit without him.

The forwards aren’t working. Simms and Godden want to be in the same place and Godden is constantly whining on the pitch which isn’t great for anyone. Godden is also tHoe worlds slowed forward which kills a lot of our attacks. Wright wants to play in the channels and wide, Simms wants to be in...

Didn’t Swift say we turned up half arsed at the end of the window? And didn’t Hamer and Robins say the sale happened out the blue in a couple of days?

Ive Saïd before. We’ve needed a Gus backup since Gus arrived. There’s no excuse for the lack of succession planning there.

Alright. Crazy Shmmeee’s formation of the week, sponsored by @fernandopartridge Wilson (as an aside WTF Collins? Why?) MvE Lats Binks Dasilva Eccles Sheaf Sakamoto O’Hare Wright Simms Only way I can see to get our forwards in the positions they look like they might cause the most trouble.

Yes. Because I don’t think it’s that bad. I think what’s fucked is is Hamer leaving. It’s ripped the heart out the side. I think Robins didn’t realise exactly how quiet the new signings were until they were in the building and things like Dabo going kaput, along with Cal injured and Gus leaving...

What would McNally, Doyle, Panzo, BNC, and JWE cost to buy permanently do you reckon?

I think it’s a fan delusion that their favourites are all great in training and Robins just hates them rather than Occams Razor suggesting they’re not impressing at all and the manager knows what he’s doing. We’ve had calls for players loads and invariably they show why they weren’t being...

Yeah we need to be honest. We’ve had two match winners ripped out the side and nothing close replacing them. Wright should be that player. Kitching should be that player. They’re clearly not.

And if I were Robins I’d say it’s because when you’ve come on you’re crap.

The “but instalments” truly is the dumbest timeline.

TBF not many Palestinians died in the Troubles.

Referencing WW2 when post war was specifically a period of international reflection and recalculation as to what is acceptable in war is ludicrous. Got the say that Israeli ambassador is awful, in fact generally all their reps are just bad politicians.

Beeb saying this for ages. They’re too similar. It’s one or the other.

Simms signed before Vik left, and we were negotiating with Wright before last season finished.

We’ve lost more quality than we’ve brought in. By definition.
